Check out Schedule 10 Pipe - Pressure rating, Nominal Wall Thickness & Weight (Dimension Chart)

Stainless steel pipes come in various schedules, which determine the thickness of their walls. Among these schedules, Schedule 10 Stainless Steel Pipes stand out for their advantages. These pipes offer lower installation costs and exhibit high corrosion resistance. While the material cost remains the same as compared to other schedules, Schedule 10 pipes are less expensive due to their reduced weight. These pipes have thinner walls and a larger inner diameter.
In addition to their corrosion resistance, they are also easier to bend compared to pipes with higher schedules. Schedule 10 Stainless Steel Pipes provide a cost-effective and flexible solution without compromising on durability or resistance to corrosion.
The dimensions of Schedule 10 stainless steel pipes vary based on the specific requirements of the
application. The weight of the pipes is determined by factors such as the outer diameter,
thickness, and size of the pipes. These pipes are commonly used in applications that involve high
temperatures and high-pressure services.
The pressure rating of Schedule 10 pipes is influenced by both the outer and inner diameter, as
well as the thickness of the pipes. For example, if a particular pipe has an outer diameter of 0.54
inches, an inner diameter of 0.410 inches, and a thickness of 0.065 mm, the pressure rating for
bursting due to internal pressure would be 18055, while the pressure rating for collapsing due to
external pressure would be 7425.
It's important to consult the relevant specifications and guidelines to determine the appropriate
dimensions and pressure ratings for specific applications when using Schedule 10 stainless steel
pipes.
The pressure rating of schedule 10 pipes determines the maximum pressure that the pipes can
withstand without failure. Higher pressure ratings require the pipes to have a thicker wall to
sustain the exerted pressure, preventing them from rupturing or failing under stress.

FAQ’s about Schedule 10 Stainless Steel Pipe
What is schedule 10 stainless steel pipe?
Schedule 10 stainless steel pipe refers to a thin-wall pipe with a specific wall thickness defined by ASME standards, commonly used in low-pressure applications.
Is schedule 10 or 40 thicker?
Schedule 40 pipes are thicker and stronger than schedule 10 pipes, making them suitable for higher pressure and heavy-duty applications.
What is SS 304 Sch 10S?
SS 304 Sch 10S is a stainless steel pipe made from grade 304 with a schedule 10S wall thickness, widely used in chemical, food, and water industries.
What is the difference between Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 stainless steel pipe?
The main difference lies in wall thickness—schedule 40 is thicker and handles higher pressure, while schedule 10 is thinner and used in lighter-duty systems.
